Georgia’s most talented football position this season is tight end, and it’s not even close. Seven tight ends are rated among Georgia’s top 25 players as seniors or juniors, according to the 247Sports Composite. All seven are four-star recruits and top-250 players nationally.

Gibson had more than 1,800 yards receiving last season.
